Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (hip) was a full participant in practice on Thursday as he continues to deal with a hip injury, according to Michal Dwojak of Bears Insider. Swift was listed as limited on Wednesday with his hip injury. The 26-year-old followed a similar practice plan last week before being cleared, playing 57% of the offensive snaps, and turning 21 carries into 90 rushing yards in the Week 11 win over the Minnesota Vikings. Rookie Kyle Monangai continues to be involved behind Swift and even scored again on Sunday, but if healthy, Swift is going to remain Chicago's clear lead back. Barring a setback in practice on Friday, Swift should be cleared from the Bears' final injury report heading into Week 12's game against the visiting Pittsburgh Steelers. The matchup isn't an ideal one, but Swift's volume alone should keep him in the RB2 tier for fantasy managers.

Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (hip) was listed as a limited participant in Wednesday's practice session, according to the team's official website. Swift has been a regular on the injury report with various nagging injuries and missed Chicago's Week 9 win over the Bengals, but has played in each of the past two weeks and resumed his lead-back role. The 26-year-old handled a season-high 21 carries for 90 yards in a Week 11 win over Minnesota. Rookie Kyle Monangai stayed involved with 13 touches for 37 yards and a rushing touchdown, but Swift has still been their best option. Swift was limited in Wednesday's practice last week before being upgraded to full on Thursday and Friday, and he should be on track to play again in Week 12 against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift is off the injury report and is set to play in Week 11 against the Minnesota Vikings. This marks the first time since Week 6 that Swift has no injury designation, as he has been playing through nagging hip and groin injuries throughout the season. Despite playing through injury, Swift has been a game-changer for the Bears this season. In eight games, he has 754 scrimmage yards and five touchdowns on 136 total attempts. However, Week 11 marks his first relatively tough opponent he's had since Week 2, as the Vikings have allowed the 13th fewest fantasy points to running backs this season. This run defense is no joke, as they've held Derrick Henry and Jahmyr Gibbs to under double-digit fantasy points in back-to-back weeks. Swift profiles as a risky RB2 this week, with his value dependent on whether he finds the endzone in Minnesota.

Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (hip) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings. Swift was limited in practice to begin the week due to a hip issue. After that, Swift was able to get in two full practices which was enough to clear him for this contest. He figures to resume his role as the lead back, but Kyle Monangai has earned a bigger role in recent weeks. Last week, Swift rushed for 80 yards while hauling in five passes in the win over the New York Giants. He does enough to warrant starting as a RB2 for Week 11.
Nov 14, 2025 6:25 PM EST
Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (hip) returned to a full practice session on Thursday after he was limited the day before, according to Courtney Cronin of ESPN. Swift missed the Week 9 game due to a nagging groin issue, but he returned in last week's win over the New York Giants and handled 18 touches for 98 scrimmage yards. However, rookie RB Kyle Monangai, who went off in Week 9 in Swift's absence, scored the team's lone rushing touchdown on seven carries. The 26-year-old Swift is still the Bears' lead back, but the emergence of Monangai as his change-of-pace backfield mate could limit Swift's overall weekly upside in the second half of the season. Swift is the RB14 in half-PPR scoring this year with 544 rushing yards and four touchdowns on 113 carries while adding 23 catches for 210 yards and another score in eight games. He'll be a high-end RB2 in Week 11 against the G-Men.
Nov 13, 2025 3:44 PM EST
Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (hip) was a limited participant in practice to open the week on Wednesday. Swift returned in Week 10 after missing one game due to a groin injury, and handled his normal workload with 13 carries for 80 yards with five catches (eight targets) for 18 yards. There was plenty of talk about how head coach Ben Johnson would distribute the running back touches after rookie Kyle Monangai broke out for 198 total yards in Week 9, but it was still clearly Swift's backfield. Swift played 60.9% of the snaps with 18 touches, compared to Monangai at a 39.1% snap share with seven touches, though he did score a touchdown on a goal-line carry. The rookie should continue to have a role, but Swift will stay as the preferred back to have in fantasy, and will rank as a solid RB2 for Week 11 against the Vikings, assuming he is good to go.
Nov 12, 2025 4:35 PM EST
Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (groin, personal) is active for Sunday's Week 10 contest against the New York Giants. He had been listed as questionable after missing Friday's practice. The veteran ball-carrier has impressed when healthy this season, but after a short absence, he suddenly faces competition from standout rookie Kyle Monangai. With a wintry mix falling and a matchup against the Giants' 31st-ranked run defense, the Bears are expected to use a healthy dose of both Swift and Monangai out of the backfield on Sunday. Both can be low-end RB2 options in fantasy football.
Nov 9, 2025 12:04 PM EST
According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (groin) is anticipated to suit up on Sunday versus the New York Giants. The 26-year-old has been battling a groin injury for a few weeks. However, it finally kept him off the field for the Week 9 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. Kyle Monangai handled nearly all of the snaps out of the backfield in that one, amassing 176 yards off 26 carries, adding three receptions for 22 yards. While Swift might lead the way in snaps at the position, it's hard to imagine Monangai going away after such a strong performance. Unfortunately, the backfield competition makes this situation hard to navigate from a fantasy standpoint. With that said, Swift still is worth starting in most fantasy formats for the favorable matchup with the Giants, although that may change in the weeks ahead.
Nov 8, 2025 9:53 PM EST
Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (groin, personal) is questionable for Week 10 against the New York Giants. After missing Week 9's game against the Cincinnati Bengals, he sat out Friday's practice due to personal reasons. Through seven games, he's produced 656 scrimmage yards and five touchdowns on 118 touches. He draws a favorable matchup if he suits up, as New York has allowed the second-most fantasy points to running backs and just surrendered big performances to Saquon Barkley and Christian McCaffrey in back-to-back weeks. However, rookie Kyle Monangai's recent emergence lowers Swift's floor. If active, Swift should be viewed as a mid-range RB2 with some usage risk.
Nov 8, 2025 10:59 AM EST
Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (groin) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup against the New York Giants, according to Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic. Swift was downgraded to a DNP for Friday's practice session due to a personal reason, but practiced fully on Thursday, signaling that he is trending in the right direction for Sunday. The 26-year-old missed his first game of the season in Chicago's Week 9 win at Cincinnati due to the nagging groin injury. In Swift's absence, rookie Kyle Monangai racked up 198 total yards from scrimmage and figures to be a bigger part of the backfield rotation in future weeks, as indicated by head coach Ben Johnson. The plan is for Swift to be active in Week 10, and he gets a great matchup in his return against a Giants defense that has allowed a league-worst 5.5 yards per carry.
Nov 7, 2025 3:31 PM EST
Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (groin) is trending in the right direction to make his return in Week 10 against the New York Giants on Sunday after upgrading to a full practice on Wednesday, according to Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic. Swift was limited in Wednesday's practice after he was held out of the Week 9 win over the Cincinnati Bengals due to a lingering groin issue. The 26-year-old is feeling much better and said that he plans to be active this weekend. With Swift out last Sunday, rookie Kyle Monangai filled in nicely, going for 198 scrimmage yards and a touchdown on 29 touches in a pristine matchup. Monangai could be mixed in more often going forward to make sure Swift remains healthy, but if Swift returns against the G-Men, Monangai will become a much riskier RB3/flex in fantasy. Swift should be Chicago's RB1 if he's back this weekend.
Nov 6, 2025 3:36 PM EST
Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (groin), who was limited in practice on Wednesday, said he plans to play on Sunday in Week 10 versus the visiting New York Giants, according to Patrick Finley of the Chicago Sun-Times. Swift missed the wild win over the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 9 due to a chronic groin injury. In his absence, rookie Kyle Monangai impressed, taking 26 carries for 176 yards. Head coach Ben Johnson said the Bears were protecting Swift from himself by letting him rest a groin injury that he's been dealing with for the past month. Monangai was also limited in Wednesday's practice with an ankle injury, while Roschon Johnson was limited in his return from a back injury. Swift's RB1 job in Chicago shouldn't be in jeopardy, but if he does return this weekend against New York, he could cede a few more backfield touches to Monangai.
Nov 5, 2025 6:12 PM EST
Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (groin) was listed as a limited participant in Wednesday's practice. Swift missed his first game of the season in Week 9 against the Cincinnati Bengals, but is on the right track to return in Week 10. The 26-year-old has been a mainstay on the Bears' injury report since Week 7 with a nagging groin injury, and perhaps the week off will allow him to be healthier for the second half of the season. Rookie Kyle Monangai broke out in his absence, totaling 198 yards on 29 touches in Week 9. Chicago may lean on the rookie's bruising running style more to complement Swift in the future, but Swift was running really well when he was healthy, and Monangai was also limited in Wednesday's practice with an ankle injury. There's a good chance Swift only misses one game, and his status will be updated in the coming days.
Nov 5, 2025 4:38 PM EST
Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (groin) has been ruled out for his team's Week 9 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals due to a nagging groin issue, per Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic. The 26-year-old has recorded 656 scrimmage yards and five touchdowns on 118 total touches through seven games so far this season. It's unclear how long Swift will be sidelined, but Bears head coach Ben Johnson said that the groin issue is something Swift has been dealing with for multiple weeks. Without Swift in Week 9, the Bears will likely rely heavily on rookie running back Kyle Monangai. Monangai has been efficient on a limited workload so far this season, recording 247 yards from scrimmage and a touchdown on 48 total touches. He profiles as a must-start fantasy running back in a highly favorable matchup against Cincinnati in Week 9.
Oct 31, 2025 3:29 PM EST
Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (groin) has been on the team's injury report since Week 7, and head coach Ben Johnson believes the lingering groin issue dates back even earlier than that. To Swift's credit, he has played in every game this year and has not seen fewer than 13 opportunities in any of them. With the Bears currently sitting one spot outside the playoff picture, Johnson understands the importance of balancing the short and long-term health of his team. Rookie Kyle Monangai was a popular Week 8 waiver wire add after seeing a season-high in snaps, carries, and yards in the team's Week 7 win over the Saints. And while he didn't see that type of usage in last week's loss to the Ravens, he was still on the field for 29 offensive snaps, compared to Swift's 31. In positive game scripts moving forward, the Bears might be more inclined to rest Swift, making the rookie a hold with a stretch of winnable games coming up for Chicago.
Oct 31, 2025 2:55 PM EST
Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (groin) has yet to practice this week and missed a second straight practice on Thursday due to a groin injury that he's been battling. Swift has played through a groin injury for the last couple of weeks, but he hasn't had two straight missed practices to begin the week, which means he could finally be in danger of missing a game this Sunday versus the Cincinnati Bengals. Fantasy managers looking for RB help should immediately run to the waiver wire and see if rookie Kyle Monangai is available, as he would likely take on lead-back duties for the Bears this weekend if Swift is out or limited at all. The 26-year-old Swift has been a must-start RB in fantasy this year as the focal point of Chicago's offense, but his status is in peril this week. In addition to Swift not practicing yet this week, RB Roschon Johnson (back) also has two straight DNPs.
Oct 30, 2025 3:23 PM EST
Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (groin) was listed as a non-participant during Wednesday's practice, the first of the week. Swift also missed practice last Wednesday before two straight limited practices. He ultimately played in the Week 8 loss to the Baltimore Ravens, but played under half of the offensive snaps while totaling 73 scrimmage yards and a touchdown on his 13 touches. His DNP to begin the week is notable, but as long as he returns to practice on Thursday or Friday, he should be active this weekend in a very favorable matchup on Sunday on the road against the Cincinnati Bengals. The 26-year-old has been a focal point of head coach Ben Johnson's offense in 2025, making him a must-start in fantasy lineups if he's active. If for some reason Swift is limited or out in Week 9, rookie Kyle Monangai would be a plug-and-play option at RB in fantasy.
Oct 29, 2025 5:13 PM EST
Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (groin) is officially active for Sunday's contest against the Baltimore Ravens. The lead running back carried a questionable tag into this game with a groin injury. However, he was able to progress enough to suit up. Swift followed a similar practice pattern last weekend as well and enjoyed a dominant showing against the Saints, totaling a season-best 124 yards and a score on 19 attempts. Fantasy managers should view Swift as a solid RB2 with upside in all formats, facing a Baltimore defense that has allowed the second-most PPR points to opposing RBs this season.
Oct 26, 2025 11:46 AM EST
According to NFL Media's Ian Rapoport, Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (groin) is expected to play in Sunday's game against the Baltimore Ravens. The 26-year-old has been dealing with the groin issue for a few weeks. However, it didn't stop him from suiting up for the Week 7 win over the New Orleans Saints. It also didn't prevent him from amassing 124 yards and a touchdown off 19 touches. While Swift should continue to split carries out of the backfield with rookie Kyle Monangai, he's still a solid fantasy option for the meeting with the Ravens, a team that has struggled to slow down opposing fantasy running backs throughout the 2025 campaign.
Oct 26, 2025 2:16 AM EST
Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (groin) is once again listed as questionable for Week 8 but is expected to play. Since returning from the team's Week 5 bye, Swift has been on fire, totaling 313 yards and two touchdowns on just 36 carries over his last two games. The Bears have seemingly found their rhythm on the ground, with both Swift and rookie Kyle Monangai posting their best performances of the season in recent weeks. That success should continue in Week 8 against the Baltimore Ravens, who have allowed the second-most fantasy points to running backs this year. Assuming he suits up, Swift should be viewed as a high-end RB2 with strong upside in this favorable matchup.
